3 pitches.

Rockfax Description
A great long adventure which is proving popular. The top of the first pitch has a lot of loose rock and is best avoided by starting from The Sidings.
1) 6a. A Grand Day Out Pitch 1. This is the old first pitch which is now best avoided, due to some rockfall. Belay at the end of the Sidings level instead.
2) 5a. A Grand Day Out Pitch 2. Move out right in a great position and climb to the level above.
3) 6a+. Harder than it Looks. Almost directly opposite is another good one.
4) 6b+. Feeling Rusty?. The hardest pitch. Indiana Jasmine... to the right provides an easier alternative to bring the overall grade down a bit.
5) 6a. Plastic Soldier. Great climbing on the Skyline. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Ist Pitch F6b: Climb the slab on the fallen block on the right side of Railtrack Slab. From the top of the block follow the right trending rampline to top out on the Sidings level.
2nd Pitch F5a: Climb out right onto hand/foot traverse across the top of Psychodelicate slab. Hard move to top out.
3rd Pitch F6a Climb the wall above the twin bolt belay. Harder than it looks. The moves in the top third are good.

Don't forget people, this is the route "A Grand Day Out", not the link up!!

1st pitch Fraser Ball, 2nd Archie Ball, 3rd Josie Ball.

βeta: No bolt belays at pitches 2,3 and 4. Bring whammo slings and maybe some medium cams if you want a really sturdy belay. Also a helmet.

βeta: First pitch still climbable with care. You can easily skirt on the right to reach the second bolt, avoiding the bold direct move to get to it.
